I tried their maple donuts today and was pleased. Are there any duds? They all look good.

I tried the vanilla (was a while ago so don't remember the real name. Much better than Glutino.

I absolutely love their cinnamon-sugar donuts! They taste just like the ones my mom used to make. I tried their maple ones and got a horrible migraine--I'm assuming that they must use grapefruit juice in their recipe for that one. I react with a migraine with even a touch of grapefruit present.

Chocolate covered for me! I didn't even bother to try the others. :lol:

Chocolate covered for sure. The maple ones were too sweet for me and I also got a headache (I figured it was the sugar rush). I have not seen vanilla and not tried the cinnamon.

Cinnamon sugar ones are my favorite. I tried the chocolate covered ones and wasn't impressed. The chocolate gave me indigestion.

None of them impress me even a little bit. But then I am used to homemade puffy, light yeast doughnuts rather than cake doughnuts which are unpopular here on the prairies. I yearn for one of those - they are impossible to make gluten-free. But for what the K doughnutsy are and intended to be (which is not puffy yeasty) they deliver. It is strictly a personal taste preference thing. :)

We live only 300 miles from the Kinnikinnick head office and plant and pick up a few things from there but not the bread, bagels, English muffins - that stuff is just plain gross! But it is so wonderful to see this company striving to do what it can in this market and they do have tons of products. Perhaps one day they will discover the secret to truly yummy puffy yeast doughnuts. :P Then I will return and stock up like crazy!

In their wee fresh bakery section they have some very good lemon meringue pie. Now THAT I love! :D

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Russ H · Posted

      The anti-endomysial antibody test is an old test that is generally reported as positive or negative - a lab technician looks down a microscope to check for fluorescence of the sample. It is less sensitive but more specific for coeliac disease than IgA tTG2. Hence, it is not "barely positive" - it is positive. People diagnosed in childhood recover much more quickly than adults.  I would look at testing all 1st degree relatives - parents, siblings.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      What about digestive enzymes that I hear help? I take align 5x probiotics daily.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.
